Backstage Update on WWE’s Main Event Plans For SummerSlam

Back at WrestleMania 31, Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar had one of the best matches in recent memory. However, neither man ended up winning the match, as Seth Rollins successfully cashed in his Money in the Bank contract during the contest.

Now, according to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE is planning on doing Reigns vs. Lesnar again, but this time, it’ll happen at SummerSlam.

“I would think that it’s Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lensar [at SummerSlam],” said Meltzer on Thursday’s Wrestling Observer Radio. “Well, it was a couple of weeks ago, and I haven’t heard that it’s changed. Usually they don’t change things, sometimes they do.”

Meltzer also said the following in a recent edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter.

“The only question is what they did change to? It was confirmed to us that a few weeks ago, probably just before the Roman Reigns interview where he said he wanted a shot at the Brock Lesnar vs. Samoa Joe winner, that plans for SummerSlam on 8/20 at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn changed from Lesnar vs. Braun Strowman as the main event to Lesnar vs. Reigns.”
